Abstract
In this study, the hydrothermal method was used to synthesis of silver indium sulfide/nickel molybdenum sulfide (AgInS2/NiMoS4) nanostructure and decorated on Palygorskite (Plg) as an excellent carrier of antibacterial materials. The performance of the prepared AgInS2/NiMoS4/Plg composites was investigated for light-driven antibacterial process and detection of uric acid from biological samples. The result shows the highest antibacterial activity of the AgInS2/NiMoS4/Plg with the minimum inhibitory concentrations about 0.2–0.3 mg/mL. The prepared AgInS2/NiMoS4/Plg as sensor depicted enhanced peroxidase-like activity for detection of acid uric. The detection limit of acid uric by AgInS2/NiMoS4/Plg was about 26.1 nM. Therefore, the AgInS2/NiMoS4/Plg can be developed in the bactericidal process and sensing in complex biological systems.
•AgInS2 nanoparticles and NiMoS4 were successfully anchored on the palygorskite.•Nanocomposites depicts great antibacterial performance under light irradiation.•The prepared AgInS2/NiMoS4/Plg as sensor depicted enhanced peroxidase-like activity for detection of acid uric.•The result displays that the great assay to UA detection in the presence of interfering materials.
